Choosing cover crops for no-till organic soybeans
The more biomass the better for weed suppressionbut you do have to be
able to plant through the stuff
http://www.newfarm.org/depts/weeds/features/1005/weeds_dw.shtml
also it states:
The New Farm has launched an Integrated Weed Management page, where we'll
be collecting online resources related to ecological weed management, and a
Weed Management discussion forum where our readers can share questions and
answers about practical strategies for better weed control on their farms
at http://www.newfarm.org/forums/index.php?c=7 .
------------
Of course there's no law saying we have to grow huge fields monocropped in
the first place. Weeds are much more manageable in the small market or home
garden.
